Book description
A Year Without "Made in China"
provides you with a thought-provoking and thoroughly entertaining
account of how the most populous nation on Earth influences almost every
aspect of our daily lives. Drawing on her years as an award-winning
journalist, author Sara Bongiorni fills this book with engaging stories
and anecdotes of her family's attempt to outrun China's reach-by
boycotting Chinese made products-and does a remarkable job of taking a
decidedly big-picture issue and breaking it down to a personal level.
Sara Bongiorni is a writer and journalist who has worked at
news-papers and business publications in California and Louisiana. Her
"beat" has included international trade and its impact on
local economies. Bongiorni has won local, state, and national awards
for her articles, including a 2002 Best in Business award from the
Society of American Business Editors and Writers for her part in a
series on the impact of out-migration on the Louisiana economy.
Bongiorni graduated from the University of California, San Diego, and
holds a master's degree in journalism from Indiana University.
